Biography

She began producing Broadway plays and musicals in 2013.[1] Her first production credit was on Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike, which won the Tony Award for Best Play in 2013.[2] That year, she also began producing A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder[3] and remained on as producer during its first national tour.[4] The original production won the Tony Award for Best Musical in 2014.[1]

Also that year, she was a producer on the revival of The Elephant Man which starred Bradley Cooper and Patricia Clarkson and had productions on both Broadway and the West End.[5] The Elephant Man was one of three Adler-produced revivals to be nominated for a Tony in 2015 alongside This Is Our Youth and Skylight,[6] the latter of which ultimately won the award.[7] Throughout 2016 and 2017, she produced several Off-Broadway plays including, The Flick,[8] Small Mouth Sounds,[9] and Baghdaddy.[10] She returned to Broadway later in 2017, producing Steve Martin's Meteor Shower (among others).[11]

In 2018, she produced the Broadway revival of Angels in America which would go on to win the Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play that year.[1] As part of CatWenJam Productions,[12] she produced Network, which starred Bryan Cranston.[13] In addition to the aforementioned The Ferryman, Adler produced the Broadway runs for both Tootsie and Be More Chill in 2019.[14]

In 2019 Adler won the Tony Award for Best Play for producing The Ferryman[15] and the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Musical Revival for producing Marianne Elliott's West End production of Company.[16]
